The Omega AT has George Daniels legendary Co-Axial Escapement. Whilst the Milgauss uses a traditional anti-magnetic faraday cage, the Omega AT removes all ferrous material from their movement, so that it is totally AMagnetic - 15 x more resistive than the Milgauss; yet no faraday cage needed. It even has an exhibition back. Now that is progress.

[@andreaiacolina]

The whole Aquaterra line is gorgeous and the 15.000 Gauss isn't an exception. I think that the Aquaterra and the Railmaster from Omega are the perfect every day watches, perfect for all the situations.

[@patricksoos674]

Love it in a teak horizontal dial

[@tomasinacovell4293]

I'm not happy about the name "Railmaster" for a wristwatch, it belongs only for a pocket watch, and they should have revived their name "Ranchero" or something for that line.

@@fredriksvard2603 The chronographs and GMT's are 43mm. The bracelet is slightly wider too. The GMT is only slightly thicker than the 41mm version and the indices seem to fit the dial better. The indices appear way too large on the 38mm version especially.

there is a smaller AQ with 38mm (caliber 8800 instead of 8900)

[@speedzero7478]

The Aqua Terra with the horizontal lines and the 48 mm lug to lug size is brilliant. The railmaster also deserves praise. My greatest mistake was initially dismissing these lines of watches in favor of the more popular Seamaster Professional range.

[@leifdehio2151]

If there is one thing I don‘t like about many of the Omega sports watches, then it is their relative thickness.

[@gpearce11]

I love the Aqua Terra, and loved this breakdown of the line. The new 41mm Master Chronometer Watches are some of my favourite watches. I was a little disappointed to hear you complain about the lack of a slimmer 36-39mm version, because that exact watch already exists. A 38mm (38.5 on older models) has been a part of the line up since its inception, and the new ones use the thinner 8800 caliber, so they’re over 1mm thinner. I’ve noticed a lot of watch reviewers seem to have forgotten the 38mm range exists, which is a shame, because I’ve noticed many people complaining the 41mm is too big and thick, and the 38mm fixes that, but no one seems to want to tell them. It’s also a bit weird, because it takes all of 10 seconds on Omega’s website to find them.

[@bobbremner3395]

Major oversight that kind of undermines the video. How could he not know that? Or maybe he was referring specially to the "15,000 Gauss" model, which makes sense actually. The 41mm model dials/hands are generally more interesting.

[@Saz-23]

Great video! I'm looking forward to picking one of these aqua terra models up in the near future. I believe it comes in two sizes. 41 and 38.5 but they have slightly different movements...

[@gpearce11]

Saji Abraham Its true. The 41mm uses the 8900 (60h PR, quick-change hour hand). The 38mm uses the 8800 (55h PR, quickset date), which is the same movement found in the new Seamaster 300m Diver. Both movements are METAS certified, but the 8800 is about 1mm thinner, which gets carried over into the overall thickness of the watch.

[@handbagaddicted]

The ladies 38mm with the wave dial (Ref 220.10.38.20.02.003) and hull shaped hour markers is AMAZING. A classic ladies version with its own eccentricities but staying in line with the brand. It’s a must for my collection!

[@gotzdonalies4217]

Nearly bought the 41mm Version this spring, but hesitated as I find the watch too thick for a three hander. I mean my Zenith chronograph is thinner. This seems to be a problem of the co axial movements.

[@fredriksvard2603]

Götz Donalies yup, its a bit unbalanced. Excels neither as dress or "sports" watch, wish it was either flatter, or the bracelet more substantial. Rolex and some breitlings (avenger gmt, not colt) are typically more cohesive. The dial itself is gorgeous.

[@salvadorcano4494]

Joseph C. Cheng There are, and always have been, 38mm Men’s versions as well. They’re available in most of the popular variations, with the same bracelet, leather and rubber strap options found on the 41mm.

How eloquently put sir. One of my favourites for sure. Love the white dial, grey indices and orange second hand just can’t decide on the bracelet or rubber. Will get the bracelet and order the rubber of course!

[@gpearce11]

Mark Playford an excellent choice in either option. Apparently the bracelet and rubber strap cost the same to buy separate (the metal sections are extra for the strap), so you’re better off buy the rubber version for $200 less, then buying the bracelet later, rather than the other way around. I’m not sure if this is still the case though, so you might want to double check my facts first.

[@markplayford5836]

That’s a first!!

[@gpearce11]

Mark Playford I know! It’s weird, but it’s apparently because the metal links are sold separately, and they bring the total cost to equal a bracelet. The good (?) news is if you need to replace the rubber strap in the future, or experiment with different colours, it’s much cheaper once you already have the metal links. Why it’s not still cheaper with the links included is a mystery know only to Omega’s pricing department.

Eye Heart Sushi while it would be nice, I’m really glad they removed “150m water resistant” on the new models, and I don’t want to get greedy. It would look nicer though.

[@vdbdg]

You should know it comes in 38.5mm. The blue dial worn by James Bond in Skyfall was that size actually. One could argue that 40mm would have been perfect, another case of Omega offering too many options and missing on making the Aqua Terra as desirable and unique as the Explorer for example. I’m sure Tudor will inevitably lessen the appeal of its BB58 by adding color options. Make one model, make it perfect. That’s the Rolex way.

[@mitondo6123]

This is an absolutely stunning watch with a fantastic movement. And available. Great review.

[@edwardblack7133]

[@benwong1111]

They do have the mid size version though 38 mm. It’s also thinner. But the 8800 movement that is thinner lose the hour hand jump function.

[@gpearce11]

Wongsarun Chatamornwong I love the hour jump functionality of the 8900, and prefer it to quickset date. However, unless you frequently travel, and constantly switch between time zones or areas with and without DST, quick set date can be more useful. And if it’s your main watch, loosing 5h of power reserve isn’t a problem.

That’s exactly where my thinking is at this time...coming from someone who has a black dial Datejust II and multiple other rolexes. I’m sick of the stupid games being played by the company. I can walk over to omega and buy the watch I want right away, when I want and to celebrate occasions when relevant

[@petesjk]

Nice analysis. I liked that you mentioned the dial was almost too perfect, because there are details on it that are easy to miss when looking at photographs of them. In person, the depth of the dial can seem to change depending on the color of the dial. I agree that the cases are too big- I really want to buy a METAS certified movement, but there are maybe 3-4 watches in the Omega catalog that fit my wrist. I went to try on the AquaTerra 38, and it looked great, but the case wears much larger than a typical 38mm watch. Also, the indices practically blinded me with all the glare they reflect, making the watch painfully unreadable.

[@FT4Freedom]

It is a SEAMASTER! That is it's heritage. Keep the connection.

[@matthewdavis8199]

And the name Aqua Terra is unnecessary on the dial. Unlike the many Oyster Perpetual models, the AT is instantly recognizable as such.

[@thegorn]

Seamaster is rich in heritage. It has to stay! The collection name like "Seamaster" is far more important to have on the dial than the model name. Having model name is just... dumb. I'm glad my Planet Ocean doesn't say "Planet Ocean". It would be like buying some cutlery and having "fork" written on the fork lmfao!

David Bartlett Hit the nail right on the head. In person, even the most hardcore Rolex guy can’t help but enjoy it’s beauty!

[@davidb5720]

Daniel Loera totally agree, I have the 41mm version with blue dial and it’s captivating how the dial and indices change with the light. I don’t mind the non framed date and think the polished centre links really enhance the quality of the watch. I really connect with the brand with his history and links to space and timing of the olympics etc and as much as I admire Rolex and would probably wear an explorer, I feel better with the Omegas! 👍

That’s insane you mention the Explorer as that was the contender before I decided the AT was the watch for me. I personally own the 38.5mm blue dial and I agree with you 100%! I thought I would dislike the polished center links but boy was I wrong. It gives it that extra pop!

A finger print and scratch magnet combo. Now go to the Omega website and play with strap options. That white dial is so versatile. So much so I can feel the plastic coming out. So done with Rolex bull, I’m returning to the Omega herd, the welcoming herd I departed 20 years ago with a blue dial Seamaster.

Most basic models are available in two sizes - 41 and 38mm. Bigger one has movement with jumping hour hand, smaller with quick set date. Both sizes share same problem - case thickness. Way to fat for that type of watch.

[@gpearce11]

The 38mm, while still being thicker than a Datejust, is 1mm thinner than the 41mm because the 8800 is thinner than the 8900. While this is better, they’re still both thicker than would be preferred. If thickness is everything, the Railmaster is another half mm thinner again, as it has a solid caseback.

[@mwojciak]

​@@gpearce11 38mm is almost 13mm thick. Its proportions look even worse than 41mm. Datejust is 11,5mm thick for both sizes, as far as I remember. But has advantage of very slim case design (AT is flat on left side), and just sits way better on your hand. I used to have Datejust 36, and it was pure joy to wear. I tried to buy this watch so many times, I love the way it looks, love technology behind it, but always ended up walking away dissapointed after trying one at AD. Case thicknes is Omegas major problem in my eyes. Not only AT, but all of their modern sports watches are only getting fatter. It looks really bad especially on smaller watches, like 38mm AT or Railmaster.

[@petesjk]

mwojciak I’m of the same mind as you, looks great with great colors and shapes and lines, plus modern movement tech, BUT barely fits on my wrist, and wears 2-3mm larger than the actual case dimensions. This thing can take over your wrist instead of balancing on it, and sometimes I think it has a disease that afflicts the entire Omega catalog- other times I just accept that Omega designs watches that demand attention, often impractically. Also, I could barely read the time because of all the glare from the indices.

[@mwojciak]

You know, I wear relatively big watches. My top3 is Zenith Defy El Primero 21 (44mm), VC Overseas 3gen (41mm) and Omega Seamaster 300 current gen (42mm). And all of them wears much better on the wrist than 41mm Aqua Terra... So, SMP show that Omega is capable of incorporating watch thickness into smart case design. Same story with Moonwatch. It is thick, I always have been thick. But case design is much better, and you don't mind thickness when it sits on your wrist. Aqua Terra is somehow flawed, and that's a shame. It realy could be Datejust killer :(

A working piece of art in so many variations that appeal to all....oh and no fecking queue!

[@gpearce11]

Vaughan Atkinson I personally disagree. When we look at the original Seamaster from 1948, it wasn’t a dive watch. Rather is was designed to be a classy waterproof watch that could be worn to the office and to the beach on the weekend. The Aqua Terra lives up to this legacy perfectly in my opinion, bridging the gap between weekday work watch, and weekend play watch, thanks to its 150m WR and bracelet and rubber strap options, as well as it’s simple, but sporty, dial design.

[@vaughanatkinson8421]

@@gpearce11 And that is exactly why AT Should stand alone it falls into both genres (sport in stealth), whereas the Seamaster is all about the sport!

[@gpearce11]

Vaughan Atkinson I suppose you’re right that that sports is definitely what Seamaster is primarily about now, but bridging the gap between the two was originally what it was all about (see the new recreations of the original 1948 Seamaster), so both arguments are valid I feel. It’s an interesting conundrum. Do you pay homage to the models roots, and keep it as a Seamaster, or do you acknowledge the shift in the model line over the years. I personally have more of a problem with them shoehorning the Railmaster into the Seamaster family, because they originally had nothing to do with each other.
